Increasing Diversity and Inclusivity in the Sustainability Movement

January 31 @ 8:00 am - 9:30 am

**Note: Due to a family emergency, we have decided to postpone the event until January 31st. Sorry for any inconvenience that has caused!

WREN’s Annual Breakfast Learning Session

The local environmental movement has made great strides, but we are still falling behind on bringing in a diversity of voices. By being more inclusive, we also find new perspectives and ideas. This year, we will chat about the importance of building inclusion into our actions and how we might do so. Sometimes even small changes can have huge impacts!

This breakfast will be the beginning of a larger conversation. We will feature a panel of experts including Kevin Sutton, A/J’s Elder in Residence, Christine Lefave, Hilary and Kamil.

A light breakfast will be provided. If you can’t be there in person, join our webinar (email us at hello@wrenvironetwork.ca for a link).
